Made with 4 kinds of vegetables, this Three Cheese Vegetable Frittata can be made in the slow cooker, so you won’t have to worry about being tied to the stove all morning making breakfast.
I am so happy to announce that I have made another slow cooker breakfast that the family has enjoyed! This recipe has everything you need to get your mornings started. You have your eggs for protein, your cheeses for dairy, and your spices to kick up it a notch.
Perhaps the most important ingredient, however, are these bad boys below…
Yes…the veggies!!
Have some left over broccoli? Add it in there. Have an onion you need to use up? Toss that in as well. Basically any type of veggie will work in this recipe.
This dish is a veggie-lovers dream come true….in the slow cooker 🙂 You can add meat if you want, however, we think it tastes just fine without it. Another added bonus…..it will make your house smell delightful. Don’t be surprised if your neighbors start knocking on the door to ask what’s cooking in your kitchen 🙂
Complete crockpot nirvana….yummmm!

This looks awesome. I'm totally making this tonight.

MMMM! That looks and sounds so tasty…and healthy too. I always need to get more veggies in me and really do love mixing them into egg dishes. Making this in the crockpot makes this recipe even better!
It is very healthy Marsha! We enjoyed it 😉
Something totally out of the norm for me.
Good thing I like to try new and different things.
Plus side of this is all of the yummy veggies, pretty neat.
Thanks for a new one for me. 🙂
If you tried it Dalila, I hope you enjoyed it 😉
It cooked around the edges and not in the middle. Very confused at what I did wrong.
It may the temperature of the slow cooker, as some tend to heat differently then others. If you didn't cook it on low, try it that way and see if it works.
We love this dish! Also love the fact that it includes lots of veggies!
